propbeanie; thanks for responding!
If your game's ocean, shipped stock, is rather well done, then I know that the problem's on my end, 'cause regardless of how forgiving a person's taste is, one look at my ocean would convince them that something's not right.
I took a look at your comments & checked things out;
The game was installed using the original cd for the Gold Edition with the Uboat expansion.
It's version 1.5
I did the default install to Program Files (x86).
I'm running Win 7 Home Premium 64 bit.
Using nVidia GeForce GTX 750 Ti, with 2GB ram.
Monitor's at it's native resolution of 900x1600; game's set to match that.
I checked/unchecked all remotely relevant video options in-game, none of which addressed the problem in the slightest.
As for the DirectX version number, I remember the installation program asking if I'd like to install some DirectX version (I can't recall what the number was). At any rate, I indicated yes & it proceeded to do something for a short while before continuing with the install.
I ran dxdiag and it showed DirectX 11.
Again, thanks for responding; it's somehow perversely nice to know that the problem's somewhere on this end.. it's no wonder there's little to no mention of a lousy ocean when combing through the SH4 forums.
